Seems like lately we have seen many new players join the game and a distinct upswing in returnees from long ago.
This is a great thing!
To me, it proves a few things about this game ...
1. This game still has great appeal to a broad range of players.
2. I totally pve based game actually can survive in today's mmo market.
3. Folks seem tired of the current crop of MMO's and want to return to their roots.
I would like to encourage all of you to tell your friends, post on game boards, and spread the word about Istaira, and maybe we all can help keep this trend going!
